Sequel will make use of DSi features.

Ubisoft quietly announced the release of a new Jam Sessions game on its homepage. We're not sure if that's a good thing or not.

Aptly titled Jam Sessions 2, the sequel brings tons of new features, specifically usage of the DSi, which "enhance sound effects" while playing. The release date on the website says September 29, so that looks official enough on our end.

Check out the list of new gameplay updates below:

Fun music challenges in Gameplay mode: Play through a diverse array of licensed songs to build levels. Each challenge is unique – players are not merely going faster they are developing and reinforcing the skills necessary to fine tune their electric guitar skills and write songs.

Immersive Experience: A 6 string interface, a streaming note chart, hundreds of guitar chords and sounds make for an authentic electric guitar experience. Choose to learn on any of the following electric guitars - Stratocaster, Telecaster, Acoustic, Old Electric & Les Paul.

User created content: Players can freestyle sections of featured band's songs and make them their own. With a push of a button, players' created works can be added to the game's set list and instantly converted into a playable level.

Express creativity: Personalized artist's profiles can be created and customized to track all achievements. Players can select their album cover and launch their debut album.

A community of budding musicians: Improvisations and creations can be shared with players' songs pushed into gameplay mode along side songs of famous artists.

Song Creation Tools: Contains powerful multi-track song editing software that makes producing high quality music easy, intuitive and fun. Create a song and have your friends play it through song sharing!
